Irishmen in British uniforms

[Mentalman]

This debate is running way way off track.

I see what you are saying Tankie, but supporting Liverpool is a long way off signing up to invade Iraq.

As for army's of big nations saving small ones from the yoke of tyranny, I point you to our own history.

As I said previously Irishmen, especially of a nationalist/republican background, serving in foreign armies is part of our history, particularly during the World Wars.

However in the modern era we have our own defense forces, of whom we should be very proud.

Those who choose to serve in the forces of other countries for reasons of adventure gain little sympathy with me.
